Facial redness and red bumps

[Jococo]

I have celiac. I follow a gluten free diet. I have noticed that my lips got really dry and I had to change to several different lip balms. Finally found a gluten-free EOS brand that worked. Unfortunately, now I have a red rash and red bumps breakout on my cheeks and around my mouth, ugh. Have I somehow been glutened? I’m so frustrated…. How do I find the right cosmetics/skincare? Anyone have any suggestions on help, direction, and coping skills with this craziness?

I know that this company, who has been an sponsor of our site in the past, makes an entire line of gluten-free cosmetics:

i had a terrible breakout 3 weeks ago and i’m a celiac 20 months gluten-free - don’t know if it was from eating eggs or tomatoes which i hadn’t eaten in awhile needless to say prior to eating gluten-free my lips and eyelids would swell up and flake - lips would be so cracked they would bleed - after eating gluten-free i’ve never had an issue with my lips but have minor flaking on my eyes still - nothing of what it used to be - i am also menopausal and hormones can also affect my skin however i generally use cetaphil as a cleanser and unscented gentle moisturizers -
